A/N: This is a just a good, old fashioned Choose Your Own Adventure. Remember, don't just hit the next button on the chapter labels, but actually go to the chapter you choose, otherwise the story won't make sense. Also, I believe I have gotten everything connected right, please let me know if I haven't and I'll fix it.

As always, I do not own Harry Potter.

Chapter 1

The noise in the Great Hall is slowly rising as the Halloween Feast continues. You sit with your best friends, Ron and Hermione, enjoying the happy atmosphere but you're still on edge. Professor McGonagall had convinced you to come back to school for you seventh year, knowing full well that you might have to leave in the middle of it.

"Something isn't right," you whisper to Ron and Hermione. "Why has this year been so quiet? I thought that Dumbledore's death would bring another attack on the castle."

Hermione shrugs, "I don't know. But I'm glad to be here. People are dying left and right outside of these walls."

"We should be fighting," you say angrily. "Instead we're here, having a feast."

"Enjoy it mate," Ron says, grabbing more food. "We don't know how long it will last."

"Not very long with you around," Hermione says playfully. "But seriously Harry –"

"Seriously nothing," you reply angrily. "I don't know why I let McGonagall convince me to come back. I destroyed the remaining horcruxes this summer. I should be out there looking for Voldemort."

"We don't even know where he is or if the killing spell will even kill him. That's why you're here," Hermione reminds you. "She gave of us a lot of Dumbledore's papers to go through. Hopefully we'll find something soon."

"It's been two months," you say, "and we still haven't found anything. I doubt that we will. Besides, going through the rest of Dumbledore's papers is going to take all year. Do you know how many people will have died by then? And I'm just sitting here doing nothing." You stare down at your plate and continue to play with your food, which you have yet to eat.

"What's that?" Ron asked, pointing the sky. A brown owl was flying through the Great Hall and landed at Harry's plate.

"That's odd," Hermione said, studying the owl. "We don't usually get mail at supper."

You shrug, taking the letter off of the owl's leg and giving it a piece of biscuit. The owl takes the treat and quickly flies away. Slowly, you unroll the piece of parchment and a small charm fell out. Wary of the charm, you don't touch it and instead turn your attention to the letter:

Harry Potter,

It is time. I am surprised that you have not sought me out yet, but we can no longer wait. I know how to kill Voldemort. The charm is a port key that will bring you to me. I have what you are looking for. Come alone.

RB

"Who's RB?" Hermione asks, reading the letter over your shoulder. "Is it the same guy that wrote the note left with the fake horcrux?"

You shake your head, "I don't know, but it's very possible. I have to go." You scoop the charm up onto the letter so you can take it to the hallway. You figure that disappearing in front of everyone is probably not the wisest of moves. You look up and see that Professor McGonagall is watching you. You smile encouragingly to let her know that nothing is wrong, she returns to her meal.

"We're coming with you," Ron says, putting some food into a napkin.

"The letter says that I am to go alone," you say. "You're not coming."

"Yes we are," Hermione says bossily. "I don't care what that letter says. It could be a trap and we're not letting you go there alone."

"But no one else knows about the other letter," you say. "Except us three and Dumbledore."

"You don't know that for sure," Hermione says. "We're coming."

"You didn't think we'd really let you go alone, did you?" Ron adds, standing up. "Let's go." You look at your two best friends, so eager and willing to help. But you also know that they're willingness to help has almost gotten them killed a few times, what if this time they actually died. Can you really bring them with you?

If you decide to bring Hermione and Ron with you go to Chapter 4

If you decide to go alone go to Chapter 7
